OffBlack Arts provides on-location makeup services with expert experience so each bride, bridesmaid, and mother feel like an enhanced version of themselves; whether it be full glam, natural beauty or filtered soft-focus makeup. Through chaotic mornings or multiple look changes, I pride myself on bringing a sense of calm to your unforgettable day. Are you planning from out of state? Great! I have plenty of experience with brides who are planning remotely. Are you doing a last minute elopement? No problem! I am located in the heart of Seattle proper but can travel to wherever you need me. I'm happy to travel in and out of state, as well as internationally. I also specialize in boudoir and engagement applications for the full experience.
I am exclusively makeup but have some favorite hair vendors that I can recommend upon request! They are not only amazing artists, they are outstanding people.

Experience
With more than 15 years experience in the makeup industry, I've had the privilege of being a part of hundreds of special days. I have worked in multiple markets around the United States which brings an abundance of confidence working with any and all ages and ethnicites. In addition to weddings, I've worked in the locker room with the Seattle Seahawks Dancers for the last five years for on-field performances. This experience has allowed me to pinpoint which techniques and products provide the longest lasting, photo ready makeup - rain or shine, indoor or outdoor, close up intimate shots or distant group portraits. Beyond that, I've worked with Reign FC, Seattle Sounders FC, Global Citizen, Zulily and many other top companies in commercial, sports and fashion to increase my knowledge and create an all inclusive clientele.

Hailey was an absolute dream! She was so sweet, easy to talk to and very open to any changes/criticism in our trial. She was professional and had the best products! She encouraged speaking up about making changes during the trial which was so helpful because sometimes I just go with the flow too much.
Day of she brought such a calming presence and seemed to really care about each of my party’s preferences on style. Hailey spent a full hour on my make up perfecting it and then after everyone else was finished she offered touch ups and highlighting chest/shoulders. She also gives the bride a full lipstick of whatever color was decided during the trial for touch ups throughout the night!
Hailey’s prices were very reasonable especially for the amazing quality she provided! I received her name as a recommendation from a friend and I will continue to recommend her to more friends as well as contact her for any other life events in the future! I am so happy I found her!

Look No Further!!
Hailey was an absolute joy to work with. I hired her recently to do my makeup for engagement photos. Being someone who is uncomfortable in front of the camera I was feeling very anxious when I met with her on the day of. She instantly made me feel so at ease keeping me occupied with fun conversation and even let me be included in what we were selecting to use for my makeup (although I gave her full control and she did not disappoint)! I've had my makeup done multiple times as a bridesmaid in the past and always been disappointed. Hailey knew exactly what to do to make me look and feel my best. You can tell she truly loves what she does and wants her clients to be 1000% satisfied.

Hailey is amazing!
Hailey is and was amazing! I've worked with her for previous photoshoots so of course I had to book her for my wedding. I love her work so much that I didn't feel the need to do a bridal trial but she insisted so that I was completely happy on the day of. I had family members that have never had their makeup professionally done, not to mention a few that were immunocompromised, and each of them loved their glam look. Hailey made everyone feel very comfortable and safe with her easy-going personality and sanitation steps. I highly recommend her for any special occasion!
